I guess I should mention that it will likely work fine on Windows 2000/NT,
because it will support XP. However, it was not tested on either of those
platforms, and time will tell if there are any significant problems.

It will not support Windows 95 because:

1) DirectX 8.1 does not work on Windows 95, and
2) Microsoft no longer supports Windows 95
